252 will run faster if you say N here.
254 Note that if you say Y here and choose architecture "586" or

256 architectures. Similarly, multiprocessor kernels for the "PPro"

779 This option enables a workaround that fixes a source of
780 spurious interrupts. This is recommended when threaded
781 interrupt handling is used on systems where the generation of
782 superfluous "boot interrupts" cannot be disabled.
784 Some chipsets generate a legacy INTx "boot IRQ" when the IRQ
785 entry in the chipset's IO-APIC is masked (as, e.g. the RT
786 kernel does during interrupt handling). On chipsets where this
787 boot IRQ generation cannot be disabled, this workaround keeps
788 the original IRQ line masked so that only the equivalent "boot
789 IRQ" is delivered to the CPUs. The workaround also tells the
790 kernel to set up the IRQ handler on the boot IRQ line. In this
791 way only one interrupt is delivered to the kernel. Otherwise
792 the spurious second interrupt may cause the kernel to bring
793 down (vital) interrupt lines.

987 Linux can use up to 64 Gigabytes of physical memory on x86 systems.
988 However, the address space of 32-bit x86 processors is only 4
989 Gigabytes large. That means that, if you have a large amount of
990 physical memory, not all of it can be "permanently mapped" by the
991 kernel. The physical memory that's not permanently mapped is called
992 "high memory".
994 If you are compiling a kernel which will never run on a machine with
995 more than 1 Gigabyte total physical RAM, answer "off" here (default
996 choice and suitable for most users). This will result in a "3GB/1GB"
997 split: 3GB are mapped so that each process sees a 3GB virtual memory
998 space and the remaining part of the 4GB virtual memory space is used
999 by the kernel to permanently map as much physical memory as
1000 possible.
1002 If the machine has between 1 and 4 Gigabytes physical RAM, then
1003 answer "4GB" here.
1005 If more than 4 Gigabytes is used then answer "64GB" here. This
1006 selection turns Intel PAE (Physical Address Extension) mode on.
1007 PAE implements 3-level paging on IA32 processors. PAE is fully
1008 supported by Linux, PAE mode is implemented on all recent Intel
1009 processors (Pentium Pro and better). NOTE: If you say "64GB" here,
1010 then the kernel will not boot on CPUs that don't support PAE!
1012 The actual amount of total physical memory will either be
1013 auto detected or can be forced by using a kernel command line option
1014 such as "mem=256M". (Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of
1015 your boot loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the

1250 Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt to adjust this.
1252 When enabled with the default parameters, this option has
1253 almost no overhead, as it reserves a relatively small amount
1254 of memory and scans it infrequently. It both detects corruption
1255 and prevents it from affecting the running system.
1257 It is, however, intended as a diagnostic tool; if repeatable
1258 BIOS-originated corruption always affects the same memory,
1259 you can use memmap= to prevent the kernel from using that
1260 memory.

1282 If you have doubts about the BIOS (e.g. suspend/resume does not
1283 work or there's kernel crashes after certain hardware hotplug
1284 events) and it's not AMI or Phoenix, then you might want to enable

1290 config MATH_EMULATION
1291 bool
1292 prompt "Math emulation" if X86_32
1293 ---help---
1294 Linux can emulate a math coprocessor (used for floating point
1295 operations) if you don't have one. 486DX and Pentium processors have
1296 a math coprocessor built in, 486SX and 386 do not, unless you added
1297 a 487DX or 387, respectively. (The messages during boot time can
1298 give you some hints here ["man dmesg"].) Everyone needs either a
1299 coprocessor or this emulation.
1301 If you don't have a math coprocessor, you need to say Y here; if you
1302 say Y here even though you have a coprocessor, the coprocessor will
1303 be used nevertheless. (This behavior can be changed with the kernel
1304 command line option "no387", which comes handy if your coprocessor
1305 is broken. Try "man bootparam" or see the documentation of your boot
1306 loader (lilo or loadlin) about how to pass options to the kernel at
1307 boot time.) This means that it is a good idea to say Y here if you
1308 intend to use this kernel on different machines.
1310 More information about the internals of the Linux math coprocessor
1311 emulation can be found in <file:arch/x86/math-emu/README>.
1313 If you are not sure, say Y; apart from resulting in a 66 KB bigger
1314 kernel, it won't hurt.
1316 config MTRR
1317 bool "MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support"
1318 ---help---
1319 On Intel P6 family processors (Pentium Pro, Pentium II and later)
1320 the Memory Type Range Registers (MTRRs) may be used to control
1321 processor access to memory ranges. This is most useful if you have
1322 a video (VGA) card on a PCI or AGP bus. Enabling write-combining
1323 allows bus write transfers to be combined into a larger transfer
1324 before bursting over the PCI/AGP bus. This can increase performance
1325 of image write operations 2.5 times or more. Saying Y here creates a
1326 /proc/mtrr file which may be used to manipulate your processor's
1327 MTRRs. Typically the X server should use this.
1329 This code has a reasonably generic interface so that similar
1330 control registers on other processors can be easily supported
1331 as well:
1333 The Cyrix 6x86, 6x86MX and M II processors have Address Range
1334 Registers (ARRs) which provide a similar functionality to MTRRs. For
1335 these, the ARRs are used to emulate the MTRRs.
1336 The AMD K6-2 (stepping 8 and above) and K6-3 processors have two
1337 MTRRs. The Centaur C6 (WinChip) has 8 MCRs, allowing
1338 write-combining. All of these processors are supported by this code
1339 and it makes sense to say Y here if you have one of them.
1341 Saying Y here also fixes a problem with buggy SMP BIOSes which only
1342 set the MTRRs for the boot CPU and not for the secondary CPUs. This
1343 can lead to all sorts of problems, so it's good to say Y here.
1345 You can safely say Y even if your machine doesn't have MTRRs, you'll
1346 just add about 9 KB to your kernel.

1422 syscalls, it's possible to isolate those applications in
1423 their own address space using seccomp. Once seccomp is

1452 config KEXEC
1453 bool "kexec system call"

1455 kexec is a system call that implements the ability to shutdown your
1456 current kernel, and to start another kernel. It is like a reboot
1457 but it is independent of the system firmware. And like a reboot
1458 you can start any kernel with it, not just Linux.
1460 The name comes from the similarity to the exec system call.
1462 It is an ongoing process to be certain the hardware in a machine
1463 is properly shutdown, so do not be surprised if this code does not
1464 initially work for you. It may help to enable device hotplugging
1465 support. As of this writing the exact hardware interface is
1466 strongly in flux, so no good recommendation can be made.

1473 This should be normally only set in special crash dump kernels
1474 which are loaded in the main kernel with kexec-tools into
1475 a specially reserved region and then later executed after
1476 a crash by kdump/kexec. The crash dump kernel must be compiled
1477 to a memory address not used by the main kernel or BIOS using
1478 PHYSICAL_START, or it must be built as a relocatable image
1479 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y).

1494 This gives the physical address where the kernel is loaded.
1496 If kernel is a not relocatable (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=n) then
1497 bzImage will decompress itself to above physical address and
1498 run from there. Otherwise, bzImage will run from the address where
1499 it has been loaded by the boot loader and will ignore above physical
1500 address.
1502 In normal kdump cases one does not have to set/change this option
1503 as now bzImage can be compiled as a completely relocatable image
1504 (CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y) and be used to load and run from a different
1505 address. This option is mainly useful for the folks who don't want
1506 to use a bzImage for capturing the crash dump and want to use a
1507 vmlinux instead. vmlinux is not relocatable hence a kernel needs
1508 to be specifically compiled to run from a specific memory area
1509 (normally a reserved region) and this option comes handy.
1511 So if you are using bzImage for capturing the crash dump,
1512 leave the value here unchanged to 0x1000000 and set
1513 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y. Otherwise if you plan to use vmlinux
1514 for capturing the crash dump change this value to start of
1515 the reserved region. In other words, it can be set based on
1516 the "X" value as specified in the "crashkernel=YM@XM"
1517 command line boot parameter passed to the panic-ed
1518 kernel. Please take a look at Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt
1519 for more details about crash dumps.
1521 Usage of bzImage for capturing the crash dump is recommended as
1522 one does not have to build two kernels. Same kernel can be used
1523 as production kernel and capture kernel. Above option should have
1524 gone away after relocatable bzImage support is introduced. But it
1525 is present because there are users out there who continue to use
1526 vmlinux for dump capture. This option should go away down the
1527 line.
1529 Don't change this unless you know what you are doing.

1540 One use is for the kexec on panic case where the recovery kernel
1541 must live at a different physical address than the primary
1542 kernel.

1564 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is set, kernel will move itself to nearest
1565 address aligned to above value and run from there.
1567 If bootloader loads the kernel at a non-aligned address and
1568 CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is not set, kernel will ignore the run time
1569 load address and decompress itself to the address it has been
1570 compiled for and run from there. The address for which kernel is
1571 compiled already meets above alignment restrictions. Hence the

1678 APM is a BIOS specification for saving power using several different
1679 techniques. This is mostly useful for battery powered laptops with
1680 APM compliant BIOSes. If you say Y here, the system time will be
1681 reset after a RESUME operation, the /proc/apm device will provide
1682 battery status information, and user-space programs will receive
1683 notification of APM "events" (e.g. battery status change).
1685 If you select "Y" here, you can disable actual use of the APM
1686 BIOS by passing the "apm=off" option to the kernel at boot time.
1688 Note that the APM support is almost completely disabled for
1689 machines with more than one CPU.
1691 In order to use APM, you will need supporting software. For location
1692 and more information, read <file:Documentation/power/pm.txt> and the
1693 Battery Powered Linux mini-HOWTO, available from
1694 <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>.
1696 This driver does not spin down disk drives (see the hdparm(8)
1697 manpage ("man 8 hdparm") for that), and it doesn't turn off
1698 VESA-compliant "green" monitors.
1700 This driver does not support the TI 4000M TravelMate and the ACER
1701 486/DX4/75 because they don't have compliant BIOSes. Many "green"
1702 desktop machines also don't have compliant BIOSes, and this driver
1703 may cause those machines to panic during the boot phase.
1705 Generally, if you don't have a battery in your machine, there isn't
1706 much point in using this driver and you should say N. If you get
1707 random kernel OOPSes or reboots that don't seem to be related to
1708 anything, try disabling/enabling this option (or disabling/enabling
1709 APM in your BIOS).
1711 Some other things you should try when experiencing seemingly random,
1712 "weird" problems:
1714 1) make sure that you have enough swap space and that it is
1715 enabled.
1716 2) pass the "no-hlt" option to the kernel
1717 3) switch on floating point emulation in the kernel and pass
1718 the "no387" option to the kernel
1719 4) pass the "floppy=nodma" option to the kernel
1720 5) pass the "mem=4M" option to the kernel (thereby disabling
1721 all but the first 4 MB of RAM)
1722 6) make sure that the CPU is not over clocked.
1723 7) read the sig11 FAQ at <http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/>
1724 8) disable the cache from your BIOS settings
1725 9) install a fan for the video card or exchange video RAM
1726 10) install a better fan for the CPU
1727 11) exchange RAM chips
1728 12) exchange the motherboard.

1754 support, or if it beeps continuously instead of suspending. Turn

1765 are made after the idle loop has run for some length of time (e.g.,

1821 On PCI systems, the BIOS can be used to detect the PCI devices and
1822 determine their configuration. However, some old PCI motherboards
1823 have BIOS bugs and may crash if this is done. Also, some embedded
1824 PCI-based systems don't have any BIOS at all. Linux can also try to
1825 detect the PCI hardware directly without using the BIOS.
1827 With this option, you can specify how Linux should detect the
1828 PCI devices. If you choose "BIOS", the BIOS will be used,
1829 if you choose "Direct", the BIOS won't be used, and if you
1830 choose "MMConfig", then PCI Express MMCONFIG will be used.
1831 If you choose "Any", the kernel will try MMCONFIG, then the
1832 direct access method and falls back to the BIOS if that doesn't
1833 work. If unsure, go with the default, which is "Any".
